Russian financial institutions are prepared to survive without access to SWIFT (The Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication) - the global dollar-based interbank payments network - should the US and European Union follow through with threats to cut it off, according to Deputy Prime Minister Arkady Dvorkovich.

"Certainly, it is unpleasant, as it will prove a stumbling block for companies and banks, and will slow down work. It will be inevitable to deploy some aged technologies for information transfer and calculations. However, the companies are technically and psychologically ready for the shutdown as this threat was repeatedly voiced," Dvorkovich said, according to TASS and RT, adding that such a dramatic step would negatively corporations doing business in the US and Europe.

"In general, disconnecting Russia from SWIFT would be a crazy step on the part of our Western partners. It is obvious that for the companies which work in Europe and the US it would be harmful. And this applies not only to the shutdown of the service," he said.

The US and European Union have been periodically threatening to disconnect Russia from SWIFT since 2014 (over SWIFT's own objections), when the conflict in Ukraine flared up and the two powers introduced the first round of international penalties against Moscow for its alleged involvement.


Poster Comment:

After NAFTA was passed China devalued the yuan and we lost tens of thousands of manufacturing plants. In 2000 China joined the WTO. We lost 70,000 manufacturing plants since then. IMPORTANT POINT: The price of gold in dollars has fluctuated over the past year. But the price of gold in Chinese yuan has not fluctuated more than 1%. The American dollar is no longer important enough to be a benchmark for the yuan. The Jews did almost destroy America. Very little time left.

China, Russia, and other countries should get off SWIFT and set up an independent and non-political system since in effect SWIFT is is owned and controlled by the USA. Therefore, very political.
